It's odd that any football fan would begrudge them that luck imo. |

This. Don't see how it's that different from City (outright cheating aside). Got lucky with owners that have deeper pockets than the opposition. Have no beef with Wrexham but also don't see the romance/feel good angle. Pure commerce.

Awful story? A small club with a quite decent history for playing in Europe and against the odds, gets neglected, stripped down and sold off to every chancer going and nearly end up going out of existence. Always well supported and the hub of the community. Possibly one of the least offensive clubs to exist. They've got some luck, finally, and are on the way to restoration and even progression from their former states. If this was Southend, who have been through similar, or any lower league club that have been £#%&!ed over constantly but the fans have stuck by them through everything - I'd be happy for them. Its such a weird take, especially when you see what the Glazers have done to us. I dunno, maybe it's a jealousy thing |

Not sure the comparison with city is fair. They're obviously out spending everyone but doing it through sponsorships and the documentary. Their owners have raised their profile globally and they're able to take advantage of that. They had a cash injection at the start but it should be a self sustaining project.
It seems a well run club with the fans and community at its heart. Good luck to them. |

Wrexham have done everything above board and have been utterly transparent with everyone. They've not signed Erling Haaland and stuck him on £4m a week or players like that, have they? They've released their figures recently and shown exactly where the money comes from. Again, it's just weird to have a hatred for something that's absolutely not Cityesque. I can understand teams around them getting pissed off with the attention and hype they get - but every one of those teams would snap your hand off for the same to happen to them. |
